Ingredients

• 2 pounds Pork ribs
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.333 cup Honey
• 0.25 cup Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Ketchup
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

Step 2

Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs for better tenderness. Rinse the ribs under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Rub this dry mixture generously over both sides of the ribs.

Step 4

Drizzle the ribs with olive oil and rub it in evenly to help the seasonings adhere.

Step 5

Wrap the seasoned ribs tightly in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 hours, until the meat is tender and almost falling off the bone.

Step 6

While the ribs bake, prepare the honey glaze: In a small saucepan, combine the honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, ketchup, and brown sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 7

Once the ribs are done baking, remove them from the oven and carefully open the foil. Increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C).

Step 8

Brush a generous layer of the honey glaze over both sides of the ribs. Leave them uncovered and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the glaze becomes sticky and caramelized.

Step 9

Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing into individual ribs.

Step 10

Serve immediately with extra honey glaze on the side, if desired.
